Claimant says:
"Allen Rogers has been doing this to all of his for a long time. I no longer work there and Iam doing this not only for myself, but for the other employees. You can ask them and they will tell you what I say is true. Also be reminded that they are in fear of loosing there jobs. Allen also makes his employees work 20 plus hours doing snow removal, Charles Rhodes ran into a gate and Jeff Smith fell asleep while driving, all due to long hours. Allen Rogers charged Charles Rhodes for hitting the gate and made him sign a paper to do so or that he would fire him."

Respondent's Counteroffer Hide
The claimant's settlement terms were rejected with the following explanation:
  • I disagree with the explanation / grounds provided

    "We are rejecting Mr. Pugh's claim for income loss. When Mr. Pugh was hired, he was informed of his compensation and signed an agreement to how he would be compensated. Mr. Pugh was compensated on a fixed salary for flucting hours as defined by the US Department of Labor. Under this compensation agreement, the employee is guarnteed a fix salary even if he works less than 40 hours and when the employee works over 40 hours they are compensted half time for work over 40 hours. Mr. Pugh worked a lot of hours when he first started at ProLawn by his request. He was an inmate at the Northwestern Regional Adult Dentention Center in the work release program and requested to work as must as he could so he would not have to be in jail. He was aware that he would not be compensated at the time and half rate for working over 40 hours and stated, "that I don't care what I get paid, I just don't want to be in jail." When Shawn was able to get into the Home Monitoring Program, his work hours reduced greatly. The work reduction was due to the fact that Shawn could go home and not back to jail at the end of the workday. In retrospect, we thought we were helping Shawn and his family during this difficult time in his life, but we can see from his claim that is not the case. Shawn knows that had ProLawn not given him employment that we would have had to serve his jail sentence in jail.
    In regards to the other 2 complaints, Mr Pugh does not have all the facts concerning those matters and is taken what has been said out of context. "
